Calmness or harmony is a natural aspect of the mind.” – Sakyong Mipham Rinpoche, January 2000
When I think of the term ’spiritual’ in combination with medicine or healing, it brings forth divergent images.

You can even get high-tech and install an ozone generator. This reduces the need for manual or chemical treatment of the water.
